Dear Friends,

Have you ever said, “I’ll never forgive them!” If you are still hanging
on to old hurts and angers, today’s devotional explains why it is so
important for you to give them up. It may take time, a lot of effort,
and will need the grace of God, but today’s attached devotional shows
how vital it is. God bless you.

Because of Calvary,

John Janney

• Matthew 6:14-15 (ESV)

  14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

“General Oglethorpe once said to John Wesley,

‘I never forgive and I never forget.’

To which Wesley responded,

‘Then. Sir, I hope you never sin.’”
